compfactory
The development workspace for CHCE — the Chimera Hybrid Compression Engine. Not a product: the place where four repositories are held to one architecture and one set of rules, so that each can stay single-purpose.
4repositories coordinated: heavenzip, ziptastic, HCS and this workspace
1architecture document every repo is measured against
The four repositories
| Repository | What it is |
|---|---|
| heavenzip | The orchestrator — chains prebuilt binaries into one package |
| ziptastic | The native engine — one binary, no runtime dependencies |
| HCS | The vendored source vault every compressor is built from |
| compfactory | This workspace — the rules and the phase gates |
The rules it enforces
One purpose per repoIf a file does not belong in a repository,
it does not go there — not even temporarily.
Phases in orderEach repo has an agent prompt listing phases.
A phase's exit tests must pass before the next one starts.
Failures are committedA phase that fails its gate is committed
as failed, with the reason — so the history shows what was tried, not only what
worked.
The workspace is public because the architecture is worth reading, not because there is anything to install.
